5 reasons why exercise is good for both physical and mental health
We know by now that exercising is good for your body, but did you know that regular exercise is also very good for your mental health? In this blog, I tell you all about the benefits of regular exercise and of course why you should do so in sportswear from FITT Wear! No matter what kind of exercise you choose, exercise is good for you. Whether you go to the gym, take a yoga class or go for a walk or running, exercise contributes to both your physical and mental health. And when you do so in the trendy sportswear for women from FITT Wear, you're in the right place! So in this blog, I list five benefits of exercise for you.
- A strong and healthier body
To keep your body healthy, it is important to exercise regularly. You don't have to work up a sweat every day, but a walk or a nice bike ride to work will contribute to your physical health. Exercise not only strengthens your muscles and bones, it also reduces the risk of chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Daily exercise improves your blood circulation, giving all organs and cells more oxygen, boosting your whole body.
2. Balance your mental health
How well do you cope with all those stimuli that come your way every day or all the demands made on you? You can significantly reduce that stress by exercising regularly. This is all to do with the production of endorphins during exercise. Endorphins are also known as the happiness hormone and, as the name suggests: they make you very happy! Exercise also helps you to be in the here-and-now. No need to think about that enormous to-do list, but focus on the movements you make, the muscles you use or enjoying your surroundings. Just clearing your head so you can get back to business as usual.
3. Moving confidently in FITT Wear
Some women exercise to lose a few kilos, while others exercise precisely because they simply feel good by exercising regularly. A good sports outfit, such as a good sports leggings that is squatproof and does not sag and a sports bra in which the girls are securely attached can make exercise a lot more enjoyable. Add to that the endorphins released during exercise and your self-confidence gets a huge boost. At FITT Wear, you will find sportswear for women in all shapes and sizes. Whether you go for a basic black sports leggings Goes or dares to shine in a Power Print and whether you prefer to wear a longsleeve rather than a croptop: FITTwear gives you the confidence and comfort to move comfortably.
4. Sleep better
Good nutrition, enough exercise and a good night's sleep is the perfect combination for a healthy body. Sleep in particular is often neglected, but did you know that it is precisely during sleep that your body recharges and recovers? And that is exactly what you need for good physical and mental health. Regular exercise can definitely help you sleep better, too. Of course, it is logical that exercising can make you feel more tired and therefore make it easier to sleep, but it is mainly the endorphins that make your body relax more and therefore make it easier to fall asleep and to sleep deeper.
5. Social support
'Nice going!!!' Yes girl! Besides being good for your body, it is also good for your social contacts. Exercising is more fun anyway when you do it together and you can keep each other accountable for your set sports goals and motivate each other. Also at the gym, chances are you will meet nice people who all have the same goal: to enjoy exercising! And if you don't find those people there, you will definitely find them in the FITTwear Community online! #fittwearcommunity
